Ingredients
Instructions
- Dissolve the yeast in 1/4 cup warm water and set aside.
- Mix all the other ingredients together in a large bowl.
- Add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
- Preheat the oven to 475°F (246°C).
- Use the dough as needed to make biscuits.
- Dough can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- These biscuits can also be used for fried pies.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter biscuit, consider using half all-purpose flour and half self-rising flour. You can substitute the buttermilk with regular milk mixed with a tablespoon of vinegar for a similar tang. If you're short on time, you can skip the yeast and just use baking powder for a quicker version. To enhance flavor, try adding herbs or cheese to the dough.
Serving Suggestions
These biscuits are perfect with breakfast, served alongside eggs and bacon, or can be used as a base for hearty sandwiches. For a delightful dessert twist, try them with your favorite jam or paired with Caramel Squares. They also work wonderfully with dishes like Broccoli-N-Olive Salad for a balanced meal.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover biscuit dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. If you have baked biscuits, keep them in a sealed bag or container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use regular flour instead of self-rising flour?
Yes, you can use all-purpose flour. Just add 1 teaspoon of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt for every cup of all-purpose flour to mimic self-rising flour. This will help your biscuits rise properly.
How do I know when the biscuits are done baking?
The biscuits are done when they are golden brown on top and have risen nicely. You can also insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, they are ready. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
Can I freeze the biscuit dough for later use?
Absolutely! You can freeze the biscuit dough for up to 3 months. Just shape the biscuits, place them on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag. Bake them directly from the freezer, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
